Nowadays in many countries young people don’t communicate with older people as much as they used to. Why is this happening? How could this situation be improved?

In the current world,
people
have been changing rapidly, affecting relationships between older
people
and teenagers.
This
essay will explain the reasons for
this
problem, and I will give logical solutions for
this
circumstance. One of the reasons is the big gap between
generations
because of technological developments. The elderly and youths do not have habits that they are doing together.
For example
, in the past, tv had the most significant activity for all family members. During specified times, families watch movies or series because there are no options better than
this
.
However
, there are numerous choices and facilities, so all
generations
do not want to watch together. In
this
way, older
people
can not have strong relationships, and young
people
do not want to communicate.
Additionally
, living style is changing.
People
used to live with all family members
such
as uncles, aunts, grandparents etc.
Therefore
,
people
's relationships were strong, but nowadays,
people
want to live alone, so
people
can not create communication with the elderly. From my point of view,
people
should do some things to solve
this
issue which is to teach
children
to communicate with older
people
with parents, and the old generation should try to find the same habits. First of all, parents should teach and show how to communicate with the elderly because
people
can learn
such
things as possible as early.
Therefore
,
children
learn respect for these
people
.
Secondly
, old
people
should try to communicate because if the old person's impression is not suitable for
children
moving to communicate, young
people
can not try it.
For instance
,
while
travelling by bus, if old
people
illustrate the face of uncommunicative, young
people
just sit, and they can not do it.
Therefore
, two groups of
generations
should learn these things.
To sum up
, everything that has been stated so far, because of the changing habits, young
people
do not want to communicate with the elderly. To solve
this
problem, both
generations
should do something which parents give education to
children
and old
people
should find the same point to communicate.
